Expertly hand-crafted from solid wood, the set features a substantial square board with a rich, natural grain that offers a grounded, rustic elegance. The accompanying chess pieces are masterfully turned and carved, showcasing a dramatic visual contrast between deep espresso-stained hardwoods and warm, honey-toned pine. This authoritative set reflects the high-end studio craft movement of the late 20th century, perfectly bridging the gap between a classic intellectual pastime and a bold piece of functional sculptural art.


Measuring an impressive 29.5 inches square and standing 2.5 inches tall at the base, this large-scale set provides a commanding presence in a curated game room, a sophisticated study, or as a centerpiece on an oversized coffee table. The set is in great vintage condition, displaying a soft, age-appropriate patina and minor surface scuffs—including a characterful blemish on the board’s edge—that only enhance its authentic handcrafted charm and storied history. This unique treasure is as much a work of art as it is a game, making it an essential addition for the discerning collector. Secure this singular monumental masterwork for your home today. See less
